The unneeded meaning of start and end,
To the disappearance of this soul,
Who remembers all the characters?
From the window of madness’ home,
Hello to myself, and goodbye to you,
Have we not met before?
Goodbye to myself, and hello to you,
So, I will say, “Do you want to talk?”
Insanity,
I am floating on the air,
Psychopathy,
Is this a carefree life?
Insanity,
An illusion that cannot end,
Captivity,
I am unable to run from it,
Insanity,
I am floating on the air,
Psychopathy,
Is this a carefree life?
Insanity,
An illusion that cannot end,
Captivity,
Is like the corruption that is continuing.
The discovered conclusion, disappearing,
Outlines fading to black,
In the darkness, there's no such thing as light,
From the inside of this madness,
“Goodbye!”
Hello, to myself,
“Have we not met before?”
Goodbye, to yourself,
So, I say, “Do you want to talk?”
“Hey, haven't we met somewhere in the past?”
“Hey, you're special to me, I want to talk to you!”
“Hey, what time is it? What's today? I don't know.”
“Hey! It would be great if we completely forgot,
While in this room of madness?”
Sanity,
I can’t see the dark already,
Purity,
The days are getting longer,
Sanity,
But that which flies, also must sink,
Sanity,
...What is that, even?
Insanity,
This world will spin round, and round,
Captivity,
They can keep me here happily,
Insanity,
Don’t I already know I am?
Psychopathy,
Watch out, for my knives have minds of their own!
Insanity is my world,
Captivity is my home,
And Psychopathy is my life,
Don’t try to ruin it,
For, my fangs have minds of their own!
iNSaNiTY,
PSYCHoPaTHY,
CaPTiViTY,
This is my life,
But, maybe it’s not…?

This was inspireds by a song, by the same name as this poem. This is actually a poem I wrote before joining Teen Ink, and at the time the song it was inspired by was my favorite song.
